Whew! Huge debt of gratitude and thanks goes out to the guys that came over and up to strip the #24. I owe Jim Dulaney, Sean Richardson, Gary Robertson, and Ben Northrup a big THANK YOU-well not so much Ben but he did buy us pizza for lunch. It was a fun day and I'm sure everyone left leaving a little blood and taking with them some bruises. I learned alot and now know the way to pull the engine is out the bottom. Jim was local so he showed up in his miata first and I led him to the garage as he said he knew what to do. Then Gary arrived in his Mini-what is it with these guys and there little imports. Amazingly Sean came up with his family and arrived early. Ben arrived about the time donuts did I think.
In the end #24 became Todd Covini's dream convertible el camino camaro race car. I took out some frustration with a small sledge and the car almost bit me back after the first swing. Jim has a love of cutting with the sawzall we obverved. Lots of good wrenching, complaining about where the other local guys or Ford guys were too. The drivetrain/suspension now has a new home along with a pile of parts inside and a sideyard that looks like a camaro junkyard.
Thanks again to my F-Body brethren who came over to accomplish what would have taken me a ton of time on my own. What an awesome group to spend a day helping out.
